Sir Syed Ahmed Khan is the correct answer to the question. He is known for starting the Aligarh Movement in India. The movement aimed at modernizing the Muslim community by promoting education and advocating for their rights.

Option 1, Liaquat Ali Khan, is incorrect. While Liaquat Ali Khan was an important figure in the history of Pakistan and served as its first Prime Minister, he did not start the Aligarh movement.

In conclusion, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan is the correct answer, as he was the founder of the Aligarh movement, which aimed at promoting education and upliftment of the Muslim community in India.
